11th January 2005 - Oplayo,
the leading mobile video ASP backed by Nokia and
Siemens, today announces it passed the one million
monthly paid video transactions via its Oplayo
Managed Media ServicesTM (OMMS). The service was
launched with three operators in mid November
2004 and by mid-December, surpassed the one million
paid video downloads and streams mark.
Philip Bourchier O'Ferrall, MD, Oplayo UK comments:
"Oplayo has again demonstrated its competence
in the mobile video market by generating the most
monthly paid video transactions of any mobile
video solutions provider in Europe. It's an exciting
time for the mobile content market and Oplayo
is able to offer mobile content providers and
operators with a real opportunity to increase
data revenue and profit."

O'Ferrall continues: "Oplayo expects the monthly
paid transactions to far exceed the million mark now
that we are able to complement the OMMS system with
our Affiliate Scheme. The Afilliate Scheme empowers
affiliate managers or Webmasters with a simple way to
start offering mobile video - offering truly global
sales promotion."
Oplayo OMMS, is a fully hosted solution that requires
minimal upfront investment, is designed to minimise
the commercial and technology risks associated with
a new mobile service launch for operators.
The system supports 3GPP but, with such a limited market
for 3GPP at present, the initial customers have opted
for Oplayo's proprietary streaming products (OplayerJVTM
Java-based for the mass market and OplayerTM for Symbian
handsets), as well as Oplayo's popular player-less download
product, Oplayo VidletTM, featuring true mass market,
viral distribution and interactivity.
